Flowery thoughts

 (Apologies to messimimi on my last blog.  I wasn't being derogatory, I said bird brain, because I was thinking of birds, not because I was one! Sorry for the confusion!)

I have been working on the garden a bit, mostly weeding.  I had a burrowing rodent of some kind that kept undermining my rose bush. I finally put stakes around the poor thing, to keep it upright! But the majority of the plants survived the winter, and rodents. Now I am trying to decide if I am going to put a ground cover like bark on, or plant ground cover like Snow in Summer.

Have my window boxes done up. I realized after I took the photo, my poinsettia that is blooming, photobombed the picture from the kitchen!  :)

Husband and I went out on our place and picked flowers for Mom for Mother's Day.  I thought they came out rather well...

I am down to 3 raised bed to finish weeding ( on the first picture you can see an unfinished one behind the flower bed).  We didn't cover the beds last year, and that was a big mistake on my part!  But, I am getting it finished... And adding some other mini beds that will have a blog later. 

I need to get on the stick and get things in the ground, though.  I have several things in the greenhouse that would very much like to be in the soil! Not to mention seeds that want to get growing...
